After some months of plotting, we’re pleased to announce today the first bands that have been confirmed for the Club Uncut stage at Brighton’s Great Escape Festival in May.

We’ve teamed up with our great mates at the Full Time Hobby label for the Saturday bill (May 16), which will be headlined by Austin, Texas’ mighty White Denim, old friends of Uncut who headlined one of last year’s finest Club Uncut shows in London.

Second on the bill will be another Full Time Hobby band, new-school shoegazers School Of Seven Bells, with support coming from two excellent new London-based acts, Three Trapped Tigers and Banjo Or Freakout.

We’ll be announcing the bills for the Club Uncut stage on Thursday and Friday (May 14 and 15) very soon. Our venue this year is the Pavilion Theatre. Tickets for the whole three-day festival are available now for £39.50. Visit the festival site – www.escapegreat.com – for full details.
